SpringMapEdit Features Problem
Hey!
The program am using for the map creation is SpringMapEdit.
I use one of the building features from the Assets (Features, textures, etc) and save the map by selecting export.
Together with the respective folders, insert with the object3d, unittextures and the features file.
When I run the map in game, my features are not texture. For example, I was using mc2city2a, when show up in the game was a yellow building instead of the texture. However the texture works in springmapeditor.
any suggest to how I can rectify this? Or did anyone else met with the problem using the assert pack too?
Thanks!

Re: SpringMapEdit Features Problem
Upload the map and ill take a look.
Re: SpringMapEdit Features Problem
thats very peculiar; i've had textures not appear in SME but then appear ingame
SME is recognizing a texturing format that spring doesnt /wildguess

Re: SpringMapEdit Features Problem
My guess:
SME doesn't render teamcolour (alphachannel)

Re: SpringMapEdit Features Problem
I bet your team color is yellow
Re: SpringMapEdit Features Problem
My team colour is yellow. hmm
The features would follow the team colour?
But why doesn't tress or rocks not follow?
Is there a way to change the team colour?
Or get features not follow the team colour?
Thanks!

He hinted at it before I even got around to posting.FLOZi wrote:My guess:

Here is the part you are missing. solid on texture 1 is teamcolor.. transparent is not team color. Again, if you had just posted the models and textures. you should have seen this in upspring.
Re: SpringMapEdit Features Problem
in upspring i tried the following:
Texture 1> file of the texture i want
Current rendering method : Full
It still remains as team color in the game.
I also tried current rendering method: texture 1 color
Both didn't work.

Re: SpringMapEdit Features Problem
Those settings are just for how the model is rendered in Upspring.
Spring will always render the teamcolour, regardless.

Re: SpringMapEdit Features Problem
Puzzled. how come certain features are not render in team colour?
For e.g. spring 1944 farm houses or the tress or rock?
Thanks alot for assisting in understanding.

Re: SpringMapEdit Features Problem
If you have the alpha channels set correctly on the textures then there is no team colour... I haven't modded in a while but I think it was a solid white alpha on texture1? My guess is that the images you are using do not HAVE an alpha channel and as such spring is glitching and assuming an all black alpha.
Re: SpringMapEdit Features Problem
That isn't glitching that is working as designed don't confuse the noob
Re: SpringMapEdit Features Problem
hmm...am getting confuse.
Am quite new to mapping and trying to get a better understanding here.
Inside the unittextures there are 2 texture files:
mc2city2a.tga >> the brick texture
mc2city2a2.tga >>a black background with green windows.
for the mc2city2a model.
How should I check/change the alpha channel?
In upspring or image editor like paint.net or gimp?
Basically I want the brick texture display in game, instead of the team colour.
Thanks for all the guidance! =D

I wouldn't have to confuse people if you just told him the right answer in the first place.smoth wrote:That isn't glitching that is working as designed don't confuse the noob
@Von66341 In gimp, go to the channels and make sure you have a red, green, blue and alpha... if you don't have all four add one and it should default to being an alpha, make it either all white or all black (maybe smoth with tell you which).
Re: SpringMapEdit Features Problem
iirc it is 99% black (but not 100%).
Re: SpringMapEdit Features Problem
Oh right, because the image parser optimized the image and just took a fully opaque alpha as no alpha. (it has been a long time)FLOZi wrote:iirc it is 99% black (but not 100%).
Re: SpringMapEdit Features Problem
am having some problem with gimp.
the texture image have alpha white.
I change the alpha to black by changing the opacity.
But my RGB all turn to black.
This is wrong correct?
